Harry Källström

Harry “Sputnik” Källström (Södertälje, 30 June 1939 – Strömsund, 13 July 2009) was a Swedish rally driver who became prominent on the international scene from the late 1950s. He competed with manufacturers including Volkswagen, Lancia and Datsun/Nissan and achieved one of his greatest successes in 1969, when he became European Rally Champion with the Lancia Fulvia HF.

Källström also won the RAC Rally in 1969 and 1970, before the creation of the World Rally Championship. In the WRC era he scored four podiums and one outright victory: the 1976 Acropolis Rally, driving a Datsun 160J. These results placed him among the leading Scandinavian drivers during the transition from the major international rallies of the 1960s to the new World Championship.
